I got both Alpha and Omicron. No symptoms with Alpha and you can check my post history as I described what happened during omicron. It was nothing like the flu, you're right. The flu fucked me up and omicron was discomfort. My father who got omicron 2 weeks after triple bypass heart surgery got a runny nose. My mother who gave her kidney to my immunosuppressed brother got no symptoms. My immunosuppressed brother got a runny nose and a cough for a week. I've seen the flu knock them off their asses.
